Facebook, Carnegie Mellon build first AI that beats pros in 6-player poker | Facebook AI Blog

Summary points below; also see Hold ’Em or Fold ’Em? This A.I. Bluffs With the Best | NYT
  • "Pluribus is the first AI bot capable of beating human experts in six-player no-limit Hold’em, the most widely played poker format in the world. This is the first time an AI bot has beaten top human players in a complex game with more than two players or two teams.
  • We tested Pluribus against professional poker players, including two winners of the World Series of Poker Main Event. Pluribus won decisively.
  • Pluribus succeeds because it can very efficiently handle the challenges of a game with both hidden information and more than two players. It uses self-play to teach itself how to win, with no examples or guidance on strategy. 
  • Pluribus uses far fewer computing resources than the bots that have defeated humans in other games. 
  • The bot’s success will advance AI research, because many important AI challenges involve many players and hidden information."
